How It Works

DeepDyve is the largest online rental service for scientific, technical and medical research with over 30 million articles from thousands of authoritative journals.

A DeepDyve user can rent an article and read its full-text for up to 24 hours for as little as $0.99! These articles can only be viewed at DeepDyve and cannot be downloaded, printed or shared.

You also have the option of choosing the Silver or Gold monthly plans. These plans provide even greater flexibility and more peace of mind by allowing you to easily rent more articles per month, for longer periods of time. Sign up for a Free Trial today!

How Do I DeepDyve?

• Search and preview any article for FREE

  DeepDyve has aggregated millions of articles from leading, peer-reviewed journals that are often hard to find using other search engines. Plus, our KeyPhrase search technology makes searching easier than ever. No more fussing with finding the right two or three words to express what you want. Feel free to copy a sentence, paragraph or even an entire document to find all the related articles without a lot of extraneous results. You’ll be able to read the first page of any article to get an overview of what's inside.

• Read millions of "open-access" articles for FREE

  Some of the articles in DeepDyve are "open-access" and marked as "Free" for any user to read.

• "Rent" a Premium article for $0.99

  "Premium" articles, that often have an annual subscription or pay-per-view fee, can conveniently be rented from DeepDyve. When you find a Premium article, simply click on the rental button. First time users will be asked to set up a DeepDyve account. Next, you will be directed to PayPal. After completing a few quick steps, you will have rented the article! Read the article as often as you like for the next 24 hours. Because you are renting the article, as opposed to purchasing and downloading it, you can only view the article from DeepDyve’s website. Some of DeepDyve's articles are "Preview Only." DeepDyve does not currently have permission from the publisher to rent these articles. If you would like to download and purchase these or any of our Premium articles, you can do that too. Just click the "Download" link and DeepDyve will connect you to the publisher's website to complete the transaction.
